Auto purple kush This isolation has me starring at my plants for hours on end for no reason at all not sure about anyone else 😂 y’all stay safe and spend some extra time on your plants they will love ya for it. Week two- they seem to be growing more vigorously then my last Diary which excites me. Let’s gooooo These plants were soaking in cup of water 17 days ago, i start my day 1 when first serrated leaves appear (roughly 72 hours). I’ve kept the watering to a minimum, in 17 days they have drank about 2L of water each, in the middle of the pot (4-6inch diameter) to promote the roots to keep searching downwards. They revived no nutrients in the first two weeks trying to promote organic properties and microbe colony in the soil before I add synthetic nutrients. Ph6.3 ppm140(my well water) -my watering equipment (essentials) ph meter and root farm ph liquid test so I can double check PH. TDS meter measures water PPM and the Total amount of dissolved solids in your water. Ppms gos up when you add nutrients to the water and there’s a limit they can handle, I have water hardness 0-150ppm of unknown solids every time from my well water, it will be fine to water your plants with this amount ive used it for 5 grows now. Seedling water should never be higher then 200Ppm with soil grows. I think my soil (maybe water also) was a little bit “hot” meaning too much nutrients for them and that contributed to some weird leaf twisting the first week + temp around 30c that might if been enough to do it. Still vigorous growth just little off on those two aspects in my opinion. They look happier now with a temp around 25 and being able to handle the higher nutrients in the soil. Water thermometer- give them good temperature water not to hot or cold. I like it around 20c. Infrared thermometer gun. Measures my leaf Temperature which sits at 23-24c when room temp is set to 25c. Then I calculate using the VDP chart above in my pictures. I’m not overly picky with this though I like react more off what the plant is showing me bc every plant is different from experience. I have two light green plants not sure why or if it’s just genetics but very interesting, they are growing with the same pace as the others so we will see. Any info would be great on these. Lights roughly 400 PAR see chart in my pictures. Temperature- lowered from last week from 30c to 25c and I’ve noticed a less stressful looking plant- thanks everyone who answered my question it’s seems heat and maybe my soil were too hot. Relative Humidity 62-72% gives me a nice balance so my equipment isn’t turning on every 5 minutes. Purple kush is a very popular strain around my town and I’m pumped to finally see what it truly is!

Leaf curling/twisting on first few sets of fan leaves on seedlings? What Causes it? Temp is 28-30c RH65%, watering 500 ml every 3-4 days, Ph6 water and has no nutrients. Par value on lights roughly 400.

Hey dude. Definitely feel like the pitting and twisting or your leaves is a heat issue. I suggest dropping down to 25-26 and see how they feel about it. Also, I know your lamp is at 30cm, but these little ones may not be taking it well and may need to slowing back off. Another quick move would be to jump your 21/3 cycle to an 18/6. It'll give em that extra long break they seem to be wanting for ATM. Definitely a non issue, just environmental parameters, transpiration is out of wack and some stress. Couple tweaks and I feel you'll be back on track👍 Cheers and good luck no matter your course of action 👌

hi buddy 👋 nice grow 👍 personnaly i am not an adept of big defoliation with auto's....due to their specifics very short flo cycles each big leaves are potentially a tank for mobiles nutrients..... but a little lollipopping is strongly recommended to avoid that's littles pop corn's buds sucks energy to upper buds. another great solution could be the addition of 2 vertical bar with a flo spectrum to ensure a really better penetration of light by the side.....it is not a pricéy solution (even if it's a cost) but demands to find the good chinese stuff . hope this helps to your reflexion 👊 have a good grow

@JinksyGrows thanks for the answer buddy I’ve decided it was a combination of thing causing my twisting, light was a little close (28inches) raised it to 30, temperature was too high reduced from 30-25c, RH% was slightly low raised from 65-70 and my soil was slightly hot for my seedlings. Oh or my well water has 150-200 Ppms of something in it, could have been the water was a little hot also .... my god the variables with a grow set up could and might drive a guy insane.... seemed to work though they look way less stressed out lol

Oh no worry’s man I’m not the grammar police if you can’t tell by my diaries lol I was just stoned and actuallythought I made the mistake saying 30cm earlier iand was correcting my self lol sall good happy growing @JinksyGrows,

@SirDillton, Anytime man. I get this at least once per grow (so far) when I'm trying to acclimate the tent. Fickle little girls man. And the variables! HA! I know man, it can drive a guy up the wall. Change one thing and you have to adjust or change 5 other things. When it's locked in, the girls are acclimated and you can just site back on watch...it's a good feeling and you'll hit that right away, if you already haven't 👍. Good luck in the coming days man. Happy grows 😀 Edit: I can't edit the answer once I post it, but I'm glad you saw that my "30cm" meant 30 inches, haha. 30 cm and they would be cooked. Thanks for seeing through the spelling mistake!

Btw, I run a closed system to. I have an 8' x 8' x 9' grow room I built. It's completely enclosed with AC/heat, dehumidifier, CO2, fans and air purifier. Peace

@SirDillton, temps will range between 72-83F as the room cools and then heats up between A/C cycles. 78F is ideal. Peace and health bro.

SirDillton
What do you keep your leaf temp at roughly? I think mine like it best 23-24c 74-75F range @Smowkabowl,

@SirDillton, PS: don't worry too much about all this VPD. First learn to control your environment especially during the different stages of growth. For instance, temperature/RH during germination and seedling is higher than during flower, so minor adjustments to those controls are needed through a plants life cycle. Once you master that you can start tweaking for VPD. VPD is very challenging without a professional set up, but you can always try to get close just like I use CO2. It's more like a supplement rather than a steroid. Besides, it seems every VPD chart I've seen has different numbers and ranges. You don't need VPD to grow kick ass buds. Fahrenheit 78 and RH 50% and you will grow just fine. Peace

Seems like you know what you're doing. You want to see something interesting, check out my grow with purple kush auto. Maybe its a pheno ..... compared to the others in the tent, my purple kush is the smallest plant, but it does seem like its getting better. I am changing water today, so I will make sure it starts the week with a good dose of cal mag and low pH. I will keep checking, but I am glad you have several of the same plant and you have that coloring in a couple, it might not be a deficiency...... You plants look nicer than mine right now..... im a bit more motivated to sit and stare at them to see if they grom more ;)

@SirDillton, Sounds good, the branches/leaves coming out from the bottom node were bugging me because they changed the angle the leaf was coming out and it was pressing it down, onto the pot brim and growing medium.... took those off. I will look to see if I can bend some stuff to help the top/canopy before I trim. Both Autos have a similar situation, so I can be conscience of LST over trimming.

I would just cut a couple leafs off every 2-3 days if I were you, it can really stress an autoflower out when you chop a bunch of leaves off, I’d try tying him down first before defoliation. @Fleetwood,

Thanks man, they are wild colours that’s forsure , just genetics I do believe, I’ve never been a huge fan of completely purple weed but we will see I guess lol . I’ll keep an eye on GG4 grow as that’s the strain I’m gonna grow next, they looks nice so far man! @Smowkabowl,

I see the light green plants stayed light green. Mine has too, and also stretched very sativa like, even though leaves look broad. The buds are dark purple and some parts of the leaves have begun to turn purple, I will highlight it when I take pictures tomorrow. I hope my buds get as completely purple as yours.

Yup they have green buds too. It looks like your auto purple kush is starting to turn purple now. @Fleetwood,

This is ashiny well preapred and well setup grow. Girls look very good. The temperature would be better under 28 degree. you can rise the humidity so they can bear the warm temps better I let you a VPD chart here so you con look wich rh you should achieve http://www.just4growers.com/media/23631/vpd_2degree.gif

Yeah I was trying to push the limit on higher temps to see if they had a little bit faster growth out of the gate but it looks to me that it’s just stressing them out! Back to 24-25 c see if they relax a little bit. I find seedlings have a mind of there own sometimes though , as long as there green and growing they usually pan out just Fine! @Mrs_Larimar,
